Volunteering

We have volunteering opportunities for people who live in the area (a maximum of 40 mins. drive from Loch Craignish). We need you to be local because our activities are weather and tide dependant and timings change at short notice.

​

We also have volunteering opportunities for people living further afield - please look further down this page and check our events.
